The Amin - Emir - Uyghur Mosque, of Turpan is a
rectangular structure with an iwan or mihrab, a
pointed-arch niche enclosed on three sides but open
to a large covered courtyard on the fourth.
The mosque is divided into an inner hall for use
in colder months and larger outer halls for warmer months.
The outer halls are built with elegant, tall, thin,
wooden pillars and beams supporting its exposed timber
frame, and are open and spacious, while the inner
hall is small and enclosed.
Unlike Chinese structures, there are no images.
